小作文:A possible version:
Dear Tom,
In the past, I often stayed up late and took little physical exercise. As a result, I became too fat and often fell ill.
Later I made up my mind to change my unhealthy lifestyle. Not only did I begin to keep a balanced diet,but I also took an active part in various sports activities. What’s more, I developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. With two months passing, I regained my health.
I suggest you get out of your unhealthy living habits as soon as possible, because nothing is more important than health. Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
大作文:
Paragraph 1: Just at that moment, many memories came back into my mind. When I was ill, she was always the one taking care of me. When I had trouble with my study, she never lost faith in me and encouraged me to keep going. When I arrived home during the weekend, she always prepared my favorite food. All her kindness came back to me. I should be grateful for all she had done for me. I realized I should go back home immediately and say sorry to my mother.
Paragraph 2: When arriving home, I saw my mother sitting at the dinner table, worried and tired. She must have been looking for me everywhere. I was ready for her anger and shouts. However, before I could apologize, my mother saw me and gently said, “Oh honey, thank God you’re back!Come inside. You are probably very hungry. I cooked your favorite noodles, come and eat while they are still hot...” No longer able to control myself, I cried in her arms. “I’m sorry, mom. Please forgive me.” I whispered to her through tears, extremely ashamed of myself.

M: I need a new T-shirt for work. Are any still on sale?
W: Yes, there are many on the third floor this week. But hurry, there’s only half an hour before the store closes!
Text 2
W: How was the dinner at Paul’s house last night?
M: Well, it was OK, except for one thing. I arrived at 8:15, but I was supposed to arrive 15 minutes earlier.
Text 3
M: Could you pass me the salt and pepper, please?
W: Of course. Here’s the salt. The pepper is all gone. Let’s ask the waiter to bring some more from the kitchen.
Text 4
M: I need to call my parents. I’ll start preparing dinner after I talk to them.
W: Okay, I’m cleaning the spare bedroom so it’ll be ready for them tonight.
Text 5
M: I need something to drink — quick!
W: Here’s some water.
M: That won’t help. I need some fruit juice or milk. I just ate some Sichuan pepper!
Text 6
W: ⑥Tomorrow is Thursday. Are we still going for a walk in the morning?
M: ⑥Of course. We do it every week. But I have to cancel breakfast with you afterwards. I have an early dentist appointment, and I can’t eat before it.
W: That’s fine. Why don’t we eat together on Friday, then? I want you to try a new egg dish I learned how to make from my grandmother.
M: Saturday’s better for me. ⑦I have a meeting at 8:00 on Friday morning for a work project. How is Saturday at 9:00 a.m.?
W: Sure, that sounds good.
Text 7
M: ⑧Honey, your mother and I have decided you’re old enough to have your own bank account. You have an after-school job now, so you should have somewhere to save your money.

M: Yes. ⑨But we’ll give you a credit card, too.
W: ⑨Wow! I feel so grown-up now! I’m going to buy myself a present with my very own credit card!
M: Well, not so fast! You’ll have a card to use, but we are the ones paying the bills. ⑩So, you’ll have to ask us if you want to buy anything.
W: ⑩Suddenly, I feel so young again…

W: ⑪Phil, we need to think about our parents’ future. When they’re too old to live alone, should we put them in a home?
M: ⑪Yes, they’ll live with you or me. Or maybe they will take turns with our homes, first living with my family and then with yours.
W: I was talking about an elderly care home, where they have nurses and other staff who help them. It’s also common in the United Kingdom.
M: ⑫⑬That sounds terrible! I would never let somebody else take care of our parents. You know how it is in our culture in China. We take care of our parents when they’re old. Even though we live in the U.S., we have to stick with our traditions!
W: Well, what if our homes stress them out?
M: Don’t worry about that. We will find a way to make them comfortable.
Text 9

M: Why me?
W: ⑭Because I can’t drive on the left side of the road.
M: Sure you can! I think it’s easier than driving on the right. Why don’t you give it a try?
W: I’m afraid I’ll get into an accident. You have experience driving in England.
M: All right, I’ll drive. London is a little confusing, anyway.
W: ⑮I’m used to driving in the French countryside, you know. There’s hardly any traffic where I’m from.
M: I thought you lived in Paris for a long time. It must be hard to drive there, too.
W: ⑯I didn’t have a car when I was in college in Paris. I got around mainly by bus.
M: And on foot, right? London and Paris are both great cities for walking. ⑰You know what my favorite walking city is, though?
W: New York?
M: No. ⑰Oxford, where we’re headed to today!

Among the many things that Brisbane(布里斯班),Australia,does really well is the care for kids.
Here's a list of places that we think will be suitable for your kids.
Swimming pools
Simple way for happiness:mix kids with water.Of course,this is a choice for the hot summer months.
Parks
Free outdoor fun-that's what Brisbane's parks offer kids of all ages.Parks encourage imagination and
activity for little people and a place for parents to let them run wild.
The Children's Art Centre
The Children's Art Centre has proven very popular with their programs and exhibitions.We love the
artist-run workshops and performances (unusually you must pay some money specially designed for
children too.
South Bank Parklands
South Bank Parklands has everything you need to keep little ones amused.Take them for a swim at the
man-made beach,play on one of the playgrounds by the river.On weekends,go through the arts market or
go to a cheap movie at the South Bank cinema.South Bank Parklands often hosts free events and
performances too.
Roma Street Parkland
Close to bus transport,this inner city parkland is easily accessible (and ideal for kids of all
ages.Younger kids can take a trip on the Jelly Bean Express,a 1.3 km trackless train ride around the
parkland or there's a playground to explore.Free entry and open daily.
Skating and climbing
We love the places that let the kids expend all that youthful energy.Take them roller skating or ice
skating.Or try rock climbing at a variety of indoor and outdoor places around Brisbane.
21.If your kids want to watch performances for free,you can take them to
A.South Bank Parklands
B.Roma Street Parkland
C The Children's Art Centre
D.Parks
22.What can we know about Roma Street Parkland?
A.It opens only at weekends.
B.Only younger kids can visit it.

23.What does the text mainly talk about?

D.Brisbane-a beautiful city in Australia.
B
Parents do not owe (their children a college education.If they can afford it,they can certainly send
them to a good university.But they needn't feel guilty if they can't.When children grow up and want to get
married,their parents do not owe them an apartment.They do not have the duty to look after their
grandchildren,either.If they want to do it,it must be considered a favor,not an obligation.
Do parents owe their children anything?Yes,they owe them a great deal
One of their obligations is to give their children a personal worth.Children who are always made to feel
stupid and unworthy,constantly compared with brighter brothers,sisters,or cousins will become so unsure,
so afraid of failing that they won't try at all.Of course they should be properly corrected when they do
wrong,but it's often better to let children learn their mistakes by themselves in time.All their parents should
do is to trust them,respect them,understand them and give them chances to try and fail.They must learn to
stand failure.When criticisms (are really needed,they should be balanced with a smile and a kiss.
That is the way children learn.
Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives.This means teaching
them to respect the rights and opinions of others.Also it means being respectful to elders,to teachers,and to

Bees and France have a long history together.In the 1800s,Napoleon Bonaparte chose the bee as a
symbol (of France.In the same century,in 1845,the beekeeping school of Luxembourg Gardens in
Paris was started.At that time there were around 2,000 beehives()in the city.After that the numbers
went down for some time,but beekeeping has become popular again recently.Now there are over 700 hives
in Paris,which are actually on the roofs()of famous Parisian buildings and hotels and restaurants.
City bees make three to five times more honey than country bees.This may be because there are no
pesticides (in the parks and gardens in Paris.French beekeepers in the countryside lose up to 40
percent of their hives each year because of disease,pesticides,and other causes.However,beekeepers in the
city lose less than five percent.
"That's interesting,"you might be thinking,"but isn't there a lot of pollution in Paris?"In fact,pollution
does not seem to influence the honey.Parisian honey was tested for 30 kinds of pollution and none were
found.
As for the taste,Parisian bees have many kinds of flowers and plants to choose from.In the countryside.
however,there is usually only one type of plant.The flowers in Paris give the honey a special taste.But
Parisian honey is quite expensive.One pound costs about USD 65.
Beekeepers in Paris face some small problems.For example,if there are too many hives in one area,the
bees might not have enough food.So beekeepers must work together and spread out their hives.Another
problem is bees in restaurants.One beekeeper had to take his hives away from the roof of a restaurant after
his bees started drinking from the flowers indoors.However,technology can be used to check on the hives,
with cameras and microphones.
Paris isn't the only city with beehives on its roofs these days.Berlin,Tokyo,London,Washington D.C.,and San
Francisco also have beehives.So,the next time you're in these cities,look around for some localhoney.
28.What do we know about beekeeping in Paris?
A.It was popular in the late 1800s.
B.It is done on the roofs of buildings.
C.It has the same long history as Paris.
D.It was a course in Parisian ancient schools.
29.According to Paragraph 2,why do Parisian bees produce more honey than country bees?
A.There are more flowers in Paris.
B.Parisian bees are more able to stay alive.
C.Parisian bees are taken good care of.
D.More pesticides are used in Parisian parks
30.What is the advantage of Parisian honey?
A.It is low in price.
B.It is good in color.
C.It is sticky and thick.
D.It is safe and good to eat
31.What is one way beekeepers in Paris deal with their problems?
A.By spreading beehives reasonably.
B.By not putting flowers in restaurants.
C.By controlling the total number of beehives.D.By storing enough food for bees beforehand.

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family,
and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I'm not going to say luck,talent,and
circumstances don't come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others
are born with great intelligence,and that's just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,
in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying
and practicing.To become great at certain things,it'll require even more time,time that most people won't
put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love.If you don't
enjoy what you do,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever
become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they
have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or
they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there's a huge chance that
you're wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it,you need to work day in and day out,almost to the
point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you're not willing to put in the time and work,don't
expect to receive any rewards.Consistent hard work won't ensure you the level of success you may want,
but it will ensure that you will become really good at whatever you put all that work into.
32.Paragraph 1 mainly talks about
A.the meaning of success
B.the reasons for success
C.the standards of success
D.the importance of success
33.In Paragraph 2,the underlined word"that"refers to
A.setting a practical goal
B.being good at something
C.putting in more time
D.succeeding in life
34.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because_
A.it takes a lot of time to succeed
B.work makes one feel pain
C.one gives up his work easily
D.one tends to enjoy his work
35.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A.Successful people like to show their great skills.
B.People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C.People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D.It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.

How to Be Grateful

That night,I quarreled with my mother,then stormed out of the house.While on the road,I remembered

At the same time,I went through a noodle shop,and I suddenly felt very hungry.I wished for a bowl of
noodles,but I had no money!
The seller saw me standing before the counter and asked,"Hey little girl,you want to eat a bowl?
"But ...but I do not carry money..."I shyly replied.
"Okay,I'll treat you."the seller said,"come in,I will cook you a bowl."
A few minutes later the owner brought me a steaming bowl of noodles.After eating some pieces,I
cried.
"What is it?"He asked.
Nothing.I am just touched by your kindness!"I said as I wiped my tears."Even a stranger on the street
gives me a bowl of noodles,and my mother,after a quarrel,chased me out of the house.She is cruel!!"
The seller sighed,"Girl,why did you think so?Think again.I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you
felt that way.Your mother has been taking care of you since you were little,why were you not grateful and
why did you hurt your mom?"
